I'm curious. How come you're posting this?

MySparklyCat · 20/01/2026 14:16

In case anyone wanted to know, because it seems like the school is doing much worse after the GLT merger

24-25 is based on actual figures, probably from the annual financial statements. The 25-26 figures are from a budget. They're projections.

Also, can't tell if these figures are based on money-in/money-out in the year or allow for depreciation, amortisation of grants and debtors/creditors. If not the latter then they don't tell you anything at all.

This is the data I received from an FOI request, so I'm not very knowledgeable as to all of this, but you are very welcome to ask for more detail if you would like to.

In the 24/25 academic year from the above figures, expenditure was almost 600k greater than income. But they have budgeted to match income with expenses this year. Also, 25-26 budgeted expenses are only 0.5% higher than the previous year. So based on those figures the school is doing better financially.
